FOX 4 News Dallas-Fort Worth on MSNWhat is a Blue Alert?After a Blue Alert was sent to the entire state of Texas Wednesday evening for a suspect wanted in the Dallas area, many are wondering what the alerts mean and why residents hundreds of miles away receive them.
Phones buzzed across Texas just before 8 p.m. Wednesday with a high-priority emergency alert. But it wasn't about flooding, a storm, or a missing child. It was about a five-day-old shooting at an ICE detention center hundreds of miles away.
